So the link should have brought you to the Unity ECN page where you would click on the CloudIQ icon. From there you are saying you saw the FAQs? ESRS thick pipe (MFT) is the way it connects a Unity system to EMC.
In Unity, can a given LUN be serviced by both SPs at the same time, as in a "true" Active/Active array like XtremIO, or is ALUA still used where each LUN is serviced by only SP A or SP B at a given time (but front-end connections can come through both SP's IO modules at the same time)?
Expanding on Rainer's response above, In Unity, the LUNs are in ALUA mode and IO for a LUN can be received by either or both SPs but are processed by only one SP.
Q1: Are there any plans to add support for NFS v4.1 with session trunking to allow NFS multipathing with ESXi 6.x?
Q2: Is it possible to create fast clones of VMs by default when cloning a vSphere VM? It seems that VMs on VVOL or NFS datastores are being cloned as full clones when using vSphere Web/Legacy Client cloning functions.
Hi Experts, about Monitoring the System Performance.
According to the papper "Monitoring System Performance H14978 REV 01", the historical data is limit to the maximum retetation period of 90 days and the size of 16GB for the logs.

BTW, the ESRS connection is a “pull” connection

CloudIQ FAQs are called "Guidelines" and are accessible via the Unity EMC Community page (just scoll down to the CloudIQ icon) https://community.emc.com/community/products/unity

Hi Experts,
I've read the some e-Learning, Unity likes VNXe2 architecture I think.
So I have one worry.
That is Fail safe network for File service.
VNXe2 is not support FSN, Unity is supported that?
Some documents writes "supported" but local engineer said "not supported".
Which information is correct?
And if "not supported" is true, do you have plan to support FSN?
Regards.

quick note that for HA on the file resources link aggregation is recommended; check out the EMC Unity Best Practices guide

According to the papper "Monitoring System Performance H14978 REV 01", the historical data is limit to the maximum retetation period of 90 days and the size of 16GB for the logs.
Is there any way to customize this?

There is no difference between a Unity AF DPE and a Unity Hybrid DPE.

About Asynchronous replication and metrics reports.
Do we still have information about Data LAG and RPO between replicas as currently available on the VNX2 Analyzer?
